FIFA criteria

FIFA recognises only matches played within the FIFA World Cup (including qualifying competitions), continental competitions (including qualifiers), friendly matches between senior national teams and Olympic final and qualifying matches as international "A" matches.

As FIFA recognises the Great Britain women's Olympic football team, these appearances are included. FIFA does not recognise the Catalonia women's national football team, and so these appearances are not included.
